One of the major highlights of The Family Man series has been the funny equation Srikant (Manoj Bajpayee) shares with JK Talpade (Sharib Hashmi). From casually hanging at vada pav stalls to risking their lives during tactical missions, their humour and chemistry seems to be on point, every time. We take a look at other buddy cop duos in films who are equally good, if not more.
